He does change trainers way too much. Can't develop any continuity that way. Should have just stayed with Floyd Sr.

Chad looked so great under Floyd Sr. The strange thing was how he fired Sr, two weeks before a scheduled fight. I know Sr can be somewhat of an ahole, but he got the best out of Chad. Most of the time boxers don't go against what works. This is why it's so important for a boxer to stay with a trainer they feel comfortable and stick with them. Andre Ward wouldn't be the boxer he is today if he switched trainers 8 times.

Agreed. And it was nowhere more apparent than his last fight with Ward. In the early going it was Dawson who seemed to have the advantage. He was timing Ward beautifully with his right counter hook. He was as sharp as I've ever seen him. Ward looked slightly lost until he went agro and scored that flash KD. Dawson crumbled like a house of cards from that point forward.

If he dumped Scully because of that performance I've lost all respect for Chad Dawson. John can't give him more heart.

Dawson looked like trash even in the first two rounds. One of the reasons why his jab was ineffective was because he was giving up his height and reach, he was trying to fight Ward's game. His feet was glued to the canvas, he was fighting flat-footed, he fell to all the southpaw traps such as slow-jabbing which made him vulnerable to Ward's right hook.

As for Scully his advise and strategy against Hopkins and Ward was poor. It's not to say that Scully is a bad trainer, but you can tell Scully lacked experience training Chad, he really needed more experience with Chad to better prepare him against the likes of Hopkins and Ward. It was a mistake by Dawson to hire Scully in the first place, he should have stuck with Steward.

I defy anyone to watch the first two rounds and agree with what you've said. Dawson clearly had the upper hand and was befuddling perhaps the best fighter in the world during the moments in that fight when both guys were still feeling each other out.

Chad is a boring fighter, he has the tools and talent but this guy is so timid in the ring.

He rarely throws any punches doesn't go for the kill with his crisp combos and just poses a lot.

Scully should just train offensive fighters who are hungry to go for a knockout. Someone hook Nonito Donaire up with Scully, once Nonito goes up to 126 we all know he will have to fight Mikey Garcia and Robert Garcia is not going to train Nonito over his brother.
